Too high to drive bill passes first committee in Colorado House

Denver  A bill defining how high is too high to be behind the wheel of a car has cleared the initial hurdle after it was passed unanimously by the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday.

House Bill 1114, sponsored by House Minority Leader Mark Waller, R-Colorado Springs, and state Rep. Rhonda Fields, D-Aurora, sets the legal limit for driving under the influence of marijuana at 5 nanograms of active THC per milliliter of blood.
